BDU's FREE PICK
I'm going to take a stab on Arizona. Some of the luster has worn off this one with both teams coming off losses, but it should be a great matchup and you could make a case either way. With that said, Arizona played great against a tough USC team in their last outing, ultimately compiling 506 total yards with 28 first downs. The Wildcats shot themselves in the foot with 12 penalties for 99 yards, however.


Washington St is favored at -8 & the O/U is 59
